However, later I ran into the following two problems:

1) tex2lyx won't compile, if fails with the following error

counters.o(.text+0x1090): In function `Counters::enumLabel(std::basic_string<char, std::char_traits
              <char>, std::allocator<char> > const&, Buffer const&)':
/home/david/temp/lyx/lyx-devel/src/tex2lyx/counters.C:336: undefined reference to `Buffer::B_(std:: basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > const&) const'

2) I configured lyx with --prefix=/home/david/temp/lyx-install to have LyX installed in my local working directory, but when I tried to run LyX, I got this error:

Unable to determine the system directory having searched
        /home/david/temp/lyx-install/share/lyx/
Try the '-sysdir' command line parameter or set the environment variable LYX_DIR_14x to the LyX system directory containing the file `chkconfig.ltx'.

I suppose 1) and 2) are not related. So 2) is really a problem (since I'm writing my thesis from scratch). I did install LyX this way some months ago (version 1.4.0) and it did work.


I was mistaken, the problem 1) is not a failure in tex2lyx, I disables tex2lyx from configure.ac and rerun everything but the problem is still there. The very same error (undefined reference to Buffer::B_) causes the rest of the compilation to fail.

First I thought the problem was localized to tex2lyx and thought that LyX compiled just fine... Now it seems that 1) and 2) are related.
